Old 97s - Busted Afternoon lyrics

There was a fine rain

There was a red wine

There was a long whistle

and it was a good sign

There was a band playin'

Somewhere off-screen

There was a girl sayin'

"Come clean."

CHORUS

In a dream

On a busted afternoon

In a haze

On a busted afternoon

In a bad way

On a busted afternoon

There was a sad truth

There was a punchline

and there was a long whistle

and it was a good sign

And there was a long goodbye

There was a long goodbye

(Repeat Chorus)
